The bulk update request #13541 is pending approval.

create alias webm (100606) -> animated (196895) # has blocking transitive relationships, cannot be applied through bur
create alias mp4 (0) -> animated (196895)

Reason: Unaliased in topic #26644, we have filetype searches and do not need these tags

From the sounds of it these tags existed due to heavy restrictions on metatags in searches, but most if not all of those have been resolved

This alias should be accurate in 99% of cases, the few slideshow posts shouldn't warrant a different target (and if they do we should talk about retargeting the gif alias)

The BTR is topic #54476, an implication to animated which is objectively incorrect regardless of the future status of the tag
